Santos is the highest scoring team in the Primera league and play at a higher elevation than Calgary. I'm not sure how to prepare for high altitude with the MLS schedule the way it is.
As GirlySport insinuated, I'm not even sure elevation was the main reason for the Sounders defeat since they play Colorado/RSL at even higher elevations and aren't dominated by RSL/Rapids to the same extent the way Santos dominated.
Just a lot of soccer within a short timeframe and pretty evident Primera League is at a higher level than MLS at this point.
I wish TFC all the best and beat the crap out of Santos but hoping for a big Sounders comeback win to start MLS season tonight.
